Biographie
Takuji GOTODA, MD, PhD graduated from Tokyo Medical University in 1992. After internship, he started residency for Gastrointestinal Oncology from 1995, and was appointed the Chief of the Endoscopy Division at National Cancer Center Hospital from 2006. He has received ASGE Audiovisual Award in 2005 and 2010. He has served in the board member of Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Gastric Cancer and Digestive Endoscopy, and the council of the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, Japanese Society of Gastroenterology, Japanese Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society and Japanese Society of Gastroenterology. He has also been honored as a Fellow of ASGE from 2012.

Takuji Gotoda is an ESD (endoscopic submucosal dissection) expert, and operated more than 500 ESD procedures on stomach or gastric cancer each year. The number of ESD procedures by Prof. Gotoda exceeds most of his peers, which makes him one of the best doctors for gastric cancer despite his young ages. Prof. Gotoda prefers to use IT knife. Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection is the medical technology that allows the procedures for tumors larger than area of 2cm, and with his IT knife, he had some clinical cases in which he could completely remove areas of tumors which were 9cm length. Gastric wall is only about 7mm and endoscopy allows visibility to surgeons only through monitor. ESD is extremely delicate procedure, and vital to be sufficiently experienced in handling of the subtle procedures.
